It reminded me a lot of Stargate Universe, a complete tonal whiplash that was clearly imitating other popular shows rather than a continuation of the franchise. I was pretty kind to it in the beginning because SGU got pretty good after I got over it not being Stargate as well, but Discovery S2 completely killed any hope I had.

Do you have any idea what you might be interested in? Genres, topics, non-fiction/fiction, etc.
I was going to post the same thing.
I lied, I cheated, I bribed men to cover the crimes of other men. I am an accessory to murder. But most damning thing of all, I think I can live with it. And if I had to do it all over again, I would.
Just... god damn it hits hard. Also Sisko's change in tone turning the final "I can live with it" into a question.
I didn't even like Doom (2016). It was ugly, dull and I hated the finisher system. Really disappointed because I'm old enough to have played the other Doom games as a kid and I mostly enjoyed the new wave of boomer shooters. Great soundtrack though.
Yeah, great for lobbies like that. Can't think of a more effective, quick to type thing you could dump in chat.
I've deployed it in real life too and watched a bunch of awkward 20-somethings go from nothing but occasional stressed sniping at each other to making "ooo ooo aaa aaa" noises while throwing themselves back into the job at hand. Truly a sight to behold.
Most of my use has been in games though, where I've accidentally become team parent to far too many groups and had to get a bunch of maladjusted shut ins back in the right mind set before a tournament or whatever.
Sort of off topic, but "apes together strong" has been hilariously useful to me over the years. The number of gamer brained "lone wolves" I've had to get onboard and working together is bizarrely high. Apes together strong always hits. Instant enthusiasm and team cohesion as they make fucking monkey noises together and start to roll with any set backs they have instead of squabbling amongst each other.
It has it's roots in actual letter writing, as in "I hope this letter finds you well".
